"Wait, twins being pregnant at the same time?" Brie says. "People are going to think that's a joke."

"[It was] a total surprise," Nikki added. "It took even me a good week to come to terms with like, 'Oh my gosh, I'm pregnant.' I'm not ready for it."
It was also a surprise for Brie as the former WWE star said she and Bryan had "stopped trying."
"My husband and I were trying for seven or eight months, but then I felt in my heart it was a sign from God, like, 'You guys are good with one,' so we stopped trying," Brie recalled. "When we were in France meeting Artem's family, I felt a little off. I was irritated and uncomfortable in my body. When we got home, I took a test two days before Thanksgiving, and when I saw the positive sign, I was like, 'Oh, shit!'"

Nikki said that while she and Artem weren't trying to get pregnant, she had a "feeling." However, at first, she thought the "feeling" was just "twin vibes" from Brie, who had just told her she was expecting.
"I was in yoga, and I kept getting this feeling that you need to take a pregnancy test, but I wasn't even late yet," Nikki recalled. "And so I'm like, 'Why do I keep having this feeling? Am I getting twin vibes from her? Because she just told me she's pregnant?'"
"I didn't tell Artem at this point," she added. "I just want to do this by myself. When I came back in, and it said pregnant, I had to sit down for a second."
Nikki has spoken about her desire to be a mom in the past. In fact, it was a huge part of Season 3 of "Total Bellas" and was a touchy subject throughout her relationship her now ex-fiance, John Cena.

"It's something I've dreamed of my whole life," Nikki said. "So when I thought it was going to be taken, for me, it was really difficult. I was just like, gosh, I can't imagine life without being a mom and experiencing the miracle of life and raising a child. I'm just so family-oriented that I couldn't imagine not having that family life."
Artem took to Instagram to share his excitement about being a father and revealed a sonogram of the baby. "I'm going to be a dad," the "DWTS" pro wrote in an image, above. Artem captioned the post, "We are so excited 🙌🏻"
Nikki commented on the Instagram, "You are like the cutest ever! Omgoodness! Exactly what everyone would want in a father! ☺️ Such pure joy and excitement! I'm the luckiest woman in the world! ❤️❤️ Love this journey of life with you! Can't wait to be parents together! Love you!!! 💋"
